Jon (ManyATrueNerd) has great playthroughs of most of the fallout series, including some wild challenge runs of 3/NV/4. He's definitely more familiar with the more recent games, but it was fun to see him go back and figure out the older games.

Here's his playthrough of 1: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwH1xJhcXG0f-9nIwaprNaP_p-HZyHkmg

This post is a skill check for how terminally online you are.

And I passed. Fuck.

One extra thing a lot of articles haven't pointed out is that the mod was locked behind a patreon paywall. Sticking mods behind paywalls has been a hot subject (to put it gently) in the community for a while now. Not to rush to the defense of the most profitable franchise in the world, but yeah that's absolutely gonna get you shut down.

Curious how it'll perform in real world conditions. Sodium batteries are supposed to have much better charging times and don't degrade the way lithium batteries do, both of which would be huge. Fingers crossed they live up to expectations.

(Also obligatory "expand and improve public transit damnit!")

Is this article AI generated? It's absolutely awful. Ending with youtube-style engagement bait is just embarrassing, you're the journalist, you should be the one to reach out to a lawyer and get an opinion.

Mello's the absolute GOAT. So stoked that he got on the soundtrack for Bomb Rush Cyberfunk.

Honestly this is one of the things I appreciate about Trek. Things don't just automatically get better and better throughout human history. But in both Trek and real life, people want things to get better and will fight to make them better if given a chance. Past Tense might be my favorite episode of TV in general because while things might still get worse before they get better, the Bell Riots are one of the things that spurs people into action.

I think there's a lot to be hopeful for in that respect. We're seeing a resurgence of unions and labor action after they collapsed in the 90s, the development of an incredibly large anti war movement, and people are realizing things only change if we force them to.

Anyways, there will always be bad things happening in a capitalist society, but there will always be people fighting to make things better, and right now a lot of people are realizing they want to be a part of that group.

So yeah, shit sucks but there will always be people who want to fix things.

Lots of cast members ended up directing over the years. 90's Trek had a reputation for being a factory for directorial debuts. It's really neat, it brought a lot of variety and personality to the episodes.

And you may find yourself living in a starship bunk

And you may find yourself in another part of the galaxy

And you may find yourself behind the helm of a large delta flyer

And you may find yourself in a beautiful holodeck, with a beautiful holo-wife

And you may ask yourself, "Well, how did I get here?"

And the answer is pretty simple, it was the caretaker.
